Ozeáš 1

1 Slovo Hospodinovo, které dostal Ozeáš, syn Beériho, za vlády judských králů Uziáše, Jotama, Achaze a Ezechiáše a za vlády izraelského krále Jeroboáma, syna Jehoašova.

Děti ze smilstva

2 Zde začíná Hospodinova řeč skrze Ozeáše. Hospodin Ozeášovi řekl: „Jdi, vezmi si ženu oddanou smilstvu a budeš s ní mít děti ze smilstva. Tato země totiž opustila Hospodina jako smilná nevěstka.“ 3 A tak šel a oženil se s Gomerou, dcerou Diblaimovou. Ta pak počala a porodila mu syna.

4 Hospodin Ozeášovi řekl: „Dej mu jméno Jizreel, Boží setba. Už brzy totiž potrestám Jehuův dům za jizreelské vraždění a skoncuji s izraelským královstvím. 5 Toho dne zlomím luk Izraele v údolí Jizreel.“

6 Gomer pak počala znovu a porodila dceru. Hospodin Ozeášovi řekl: „Dej jí jméno Lo-ruchama, Nemilovaná. Už se totiž nad domem Izraele nesmiluji; víckrát už jim neodpustím. 7 Nad domem Judy se ale smiluji a zachráním je – nikoli ovšem skrze luk a meč, bitvu, koně či jezdce, ale skrze Hospodina, jejich Boha.“

8 Jakmile Gomer odkojila Lo-ruchamu, znovu počala a porodila syna. 9 Hospodin řekl: „Dej mu jméno Lo-ami, Ne můj lid. Nejste totiž můj lid a já nejsem váš Bůh.“

Superscription

Symbols of Sin and Judgment: The Prostitute and Her Children

2 When the Lord first spoket throught Hosea, het said to him,t “Go marryt a prostitutet who will bear illegitimate children conceived through prostitution,t because the nationt continually commits spiritual prostitutiont by turning away fromt the Lord.”3 So Hosea marriedt Gomer, the daughter of Diblaim. Then she conceived and gave birth to a son for him.4 Then the Lord said to Hosea,t “Name him ‘Jezreel,’ because in a little while I will punisht the dynastyt of Jehu on account of the bloodshedt in the valley of Jezreel,t and I will put an end to the kingdomt of Israel.s

5 At that time,t I will destroy the military powert of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.”
6 She conceived again and gave birth to a daughter. Then the Lordt said to him, “Name her ‘No Pity’ (Lo-Ruhamah) because I will no longer have pitys on the nationt of Israel. Fort I will certainly not forgivet their guilt.t

7 But I will have pity on the nationt of Judah.t I will deliver them by the Lord their God; I will not deliver them by the warrior’s bow, by sword, by military victory,t by chariot horses, or by chariots.”s
8 Whent she had weaned ‘No Pity’ (Lo-Ruhamah) she conceived again and gave birth to another son.

9 Then the Lordt said: “Name him ‘Not My People’ (Lo-Ammi), because yout are not my people and I am not yourt God.”stss
10 s However,t in the future the number of the peoplet of Israel will be like the sand of the sea which can be neither measured nor numbered. Althought it was said to them, “You are not my people,” it will be said to them, “You aret childrent of the living God!”11 Then the peoplet of Judah and the people of Israel will be gathered together. They will appoint for themselves one leader,t and will flourish in the land.t Certainly,t the day of Jezreel will be great!
